Salt and Samovar Presented in Association with the Green Apple Festival
Show Description
Salt & Samovar is intent on writing the next great American songbook. Uniting classic rhythm & blues, “foot-stomping psyche-garage” (fiddlewhileyouburn.com) intensity and a keen talent for enduring, archetypal melody, their repertoire evokes the musical heirlooms of a cherished American past. The band’s revival-like performances gather momentum from the spirituals of the 19th century, an energy that, on a club stage, sits unmistakably at the forefront of the 21st century.
Oddly enough the band, made up of past & present members of Moonraker, FEAST & Mattison, performed their first shows on a tour of France in September of '06, supporting singer D.S.’s album, ‘Salt & Samovar’. They spent the cold winter of '06-'07 recording their debut, ‘Old Joy, New Joy’ (2007). That September the band launched its first US tour, delivering the sounds of ‘Old Joy, New Joy’ and their 15-foot American flag to 19 cities from coast to coast.
